Plot
The telenovela revolves around the story of Mexican diva Renata or "Reni" and Puerto Rican singing legend Chayanne. Other significant characters include Lalo, Tony, Sandra, Poncho and Jessica. Reni is a 26-year-old whose father leaves her a fortune upon dying. Reni who is an aspiring singer, dreams of someday meeting Chayanne. Chayanne is (in real life and in the telenovela) an international singing star and teen idol.Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).
Reni's dream comes true when her boyfriend, Santiago, a music producer, arranges a meeting to happen after one of Chayanne's concerts. As the drama unfolds, Reni becomes increasingly famous, and her bond with Chayanne evolves into romance.
However, Santiago becomes increasingly jealous and angry. Reni becomes afraid of Santiago and starts seeing him less often. Santiago's lawyer, Tony, starts to develop an interest for Reni. While this plays out, Reni's sister Sandra also becomes increasingly jealous of Reni's success and the fact their father left her the family fortune.
Unknown to viewers for most of the telenovela is that Sandra suffers from a degenerative mental illness, which explains the reason Reni's father left her the fortune and not Sandra. Sandra and Santiago create a diabolic plan where they will make Reni have an accident during one of her concerts. Their plan ends up working, leaving Reni paralyzed and with amnesia after her fall.
Eventually, she recovers her mind and begins to walk again, and she plans her return to the world of show business under the name of Chaquira. She uses this pseudonym to not tip off her enemies as to who she really is and that she's still alive.
Through all of this, and before Reni's accident, a fan of hers, Lalo, becomes her friend and falls in love with her. This causes tension with Jessica, who has just broken up with Poncho. Jessica becomes enemies with Reni and her attraction towards Lalo fuels Poncho's anger and jealousy.
Chayanne had to leave Reni because of his professional compromises. During this time, Tony started to move in on her. He became her greatest ally and protector during the time she was in her wheelchair, and a great deal of love grows between them.
Tony ended up protecting Reni from Santiago, who himself ends up paralyzed. Jessica moved to Guadalajara, Jalisco after finding she was suffering a terrible disease, Lalo purposely gets himself killed in a motorcycle crash, and Chayanne decides that he and Reni should stay only as good friends due to their busy singing careers.
Sandra gets committed to a mental hospital. Reni starts using her real name again and makes a big comeback into the musical world where she goes on a tour. At the end, Tony marries her and they have a family.
